What an unforgettable night we had for the closing weekend of The Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival.
Deb Googe aka da Googie & Cara Tivey performed their debut album The Golden Thread against an immersive backdrop designed and operated by The Fully Automatic model and Visuals designed by Deb Googe.
We had support from Barry Peak who is a legend in himself.
In the last week Oh Yeah Presents has produced four beautifully curated gigs all possible through our small but dedicated and talented team.
Huge thanks to Jordan and Aidan @frontleftonline who worked really hard on our marketing campaigns for the last three weeks. Check them out.
Huge thanks to @jeffrobinson_pr for all the great press coverage
Thanks to everyone who has come out and supported - stay tuned ❤️
Sound by the gentleman Brian Collins

Thank you to CQAF for partnering with us and to Deb & Cara for being brilliant.
Love resonators and clocked modulated noisy delays. Hours of endless tweaking, pinging and riding the line between sound surprising you or eating itself.
Taking a few visual visual jobs off the list today. Moville Light, around a half mile out to sea (River Foyle). This structure has fascinated me for years. #moville #donegal
